The president of Mexico has denied a Justin Bieber tweet saying the singer met him before a
show.

The office of President Enrique Pena Nieto tweeted late Monday that “@Presidenciamx denies
meeting between President @EPN with the singer @justinbieber.”

The statement was made in response to a tweet from Bieber’s account saying, “Just met some
amazing Mexican Beliebers and the presidente of Mexico and his familia.”

Sources close to Bieber told TMZ.com that the singer was told he had a meeting arranged with the
“president’s family” and assumed that the group in an official-looking motorcade surrounded by
security personnel included Pena Nieto.

The incident marked the latest sour note in his Latin American tour: Bieber faces two criminal
complaints as well as demands for refunds in Argentina and trouble with Brazilian police over
graffiti.
